時政熱點辭彙如「機構改革」(reform of the organizational structure)、「三講」(three emphases education (to stress theoretical study, political awareness and good conduct))、「三個代表」(three represents theory)、「減輕農民負擔」(alleviate farmer』s burden)、「理順關係」(rationalize the relationship)等,既反映了當今的大政方針、國情民意,與人民大眾的日常生活和工作息息相關。
改革是一項前所未有的偉大事業,必須「解放思想」(emancipate our minds)、「打破禁區」(break off a forbidden zone)、「轉換腦筋」(change ideas)、堅持正確的「輿論導向」(direction of public opinion)、「抓住機遇」(seize the opportunity)、破除「舊觀念」(old perceptions)、廢除幹部「職務終身制」(life-long tenure)和「論資排輩」(to assign priority according to seniority)等框框,並實行「公務員制度」(civil service)、「競聘上崗」(compete for the post)。
據調查,我國市民所關注的國內熱點問題排在前兩位的是「失業下崗」(laid-off )和「廉政建設」(clean government building)。因此打擊「權錢交易」(trade power for money)、「以權謀私」(abuse of power for personal gains),並加大「掃黑」(to sweep away the "black" i.e., secret societies)「反貪」(anti-embezzlement)的力度,「從嚴治黨」(run the Party strictly)、「治亂減負」(comprehensive improvement and lightening the burden),將始終是老百姓密切關注的社會焦點。
關心「菜籃子價格」(price of non-basic food),讓老百姓吃上「放心肉」(rest assured meat),堅決查處「有毒大米」(poisonous rice)、「黑心棉」(black heart cotton)、「豆腐渣工程」(jerry-built project) ……是黨和政府為老百姓辦實事、懲治犯罪的生動體現。
永遠是熱點辭彙的「奉獻精神」(spirit of utter devotion),還有「義捐」(charity contribution)、「義演」(benefit performance)、「見義勇為」(gallantly rising to the occasion)、「公民道德建設」(citizen』s ethical construction)等,為社會主義精神文明建設鑄上永恆的烙印。
